97 Silverado build sas & ls swap

[Trey Hardy]

Got to get started on this thing again she’s been sitting for a month or so now.
So far she’s got a
new 350 vortec
New transfer case
New exhaust from the headers back
New front end
Headlights taillights and tint
3” body lift with factory keys turned up some
22x14 fuel mavericks and 35s
This was my first truck and what my goals are for the truck above

No squat this time this picture was for the haters when I was doing the lift I did end up leveling out the truck

The color was unique and what made the truck
It also had a custom sunroof that was cool as nobody around home has that/does it
Picture when it was stock



My goals this summer are to source a 6.0 and 4l80 out a Cadillac or Denali
Convert a lsa supercharger on top of the 6.0 and depending on the milage new bottom end stroked and bored out to a 6.2 stroker
I have a perfect candidate with 165,000 on her for 2500$ I’m thinking on picking up

Looks like this sorry I diddnt take a picture of it but it’s my close family friends

If all goes smooth and she runs good I may just throw the powertrain in the obs and cam swap and build the top end down the road a lil ways. Money as always is the factor so I’m trying to budget this as low as possible! So far I’m setting myself for 10k that’s 2500$ for paint and body work
2500$ for the Escalade powertrain and hopefully I’ll recoup some from the part out of it.
5,000 to solid axle swap with ford f350 axles front and rear
I want to coil over it but depending on the budget at the time I may do leaf springs and duel shock hoops
